Looking north over Leadville, Colorado are mine tailings and a large pile of sawdust in the wash area in the foreground. Lumber mills with stacks of timber and milled lumber, sheds, barns, lean-tos, log cabins, tents, false fronts, and some two-story residences under construction are in the middleground. A sign on one false front reads "Hardware." Hills and low mountains make up the background.
